[New York Daily News] – A HUSBAND who was kicked out of the house two months ago returned home Monday and stabbed his Guyanese wife to death, police said.Hannah Donald, 47, was rushed to Kings County Hospital with multiple stab wounds to her chest, neck and arm just before 18:00h after an argument turned violent inside the woman’s home on E. 17 St. near Dorchester Rd. in Flatbush, police said. She later died of her injuries.

A dishevelled man identified by friends as Donald’s 58-year-old husband was taken into custody at the Cortelyou Rd. Q train station around 21:30h, witnesses said.

Friend Izafet Colok, 57, who works at a nearby laundromat, said the husband had harassed the victim after she kicked him out.

“She tell me, ‘He’s coming to bother me.’ I told her just change the locks. Every time I tell her,” Colok said.

“She’s a quiet lady, so nice. She always help everybody,” he added. “He’s drinking, he’s not nice, he comes to my laundry and complains. I know he’s like a bum.”

Charges were pending against the estranged husband early Tuesday.
